The theme this year is sinful figures, beauty in the beast
A dire lot of diabolic dress
The glamorous allure of ancient gothic garb
Inpsired our sartorial finesse
We've crashed at the exhibit as the fashion underworld
To set the scene for our petite soirée
So this evening let your backside reign supreme
And put your inner demons on display
A dire lot of diabolic dress
The glamorous allure of ancient gothic garb
Inpsired our sartorial finesse
We've crashed at the exhibit as the fashion underworld
To set the scene for our petite soirée
So this evening let your backside reign supreme
And put your inner demons on display
chorus:
Let the angels keep their wings
Let the virgins wear their white
Saints can have their halo
You won't see them here tonight
Only sinners get seen while goody-goodies get nada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
Let the virgins wear their white
Saints can have their halo
You won't see them here tonight
Only sinners get seen while goody-goodies get nada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
Don't let Miranda spot a single pitchfork out of place
Don't let her notice Jared Kushner's here
The second I can leave, I'm bolting out the door
But please let her invite me back next year
If I can slip away before they serve the final course
I'll only be ten minutes late for Nate
I am just one day away from Fashion Week
And one head-cold away from Michael Wade
Don't let her notice Jared Kushner's here
The second I can leave, I'm bolting out the door
But please let her invite me back next year
If I can slip away before they serve the final course
I'll only be ten minutes late for Nate
I am just one day away from Fashion Week
And one head-cold away from Michael Wade
chorus:
Let the angels keep their wings
Let the puritans stay pure
That old cherub may be charming
You won't see them in Couture
Only sinners get seen while goody-goodies get nada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears prada
Let the puritans stay pure
That old cherub may be charming
You won't see them in Couture
Only sinners get seen while goody-goodies get nada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears prada
Evil has never looked so divine
Or have a higher price tag
So let's get wasted on our holy wine
And go to hell in a chic snakeskin handbag
Or have a higher price tag
So let's get wasted on our holy wine
And go to hell in a chic snakeskin handbag
chorus:
Only sinners get seen while goody-goodies get nada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
Now Paris is upon us
And I'll need my strongest team
And Emily's no longer on the list
Miranda, wait who me? I'm sorry, no I can't
Emily's your person I insist
The choice is yours but if you don't come I'll assume
You're ___ ambitious here or overall
And Andrea, tell her I'll leave before she leaves the ball, that's all
And I'll need my strongest team
And Emily's no longer on the list
Miranda, wait who me? I'm sorry, no I can't
Emily's your person I insist
The choice is yours but if you don't come I'll assume
You're ___ ambitious here or overall
And Andrea, tell her I'll leave before she leaves the ball, that's all
chorus:
Let the angels keep their wings
Let the virgins wear their white
Nuns can have their habits
So who are you wearing tonight?
Better do the dirty deed, you really, really oughta
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
Gonna get what you want, you gotta do what you gotta
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
Let the virgins wear their white
Nuns can have their habits
So who are you wearing tonight?
Better do the dirty deed, you really, really oughta
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
Gonna get what you want, you gotta do what you gotta
'Cause hell is the runway where the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
The devil, the devil wears Prada
